  1. Hope it’s nothing too bad @BB1979 Exactly the same here @Thunders - the roar outside as the wind rips through the branches has sometimes sounded like a jet plane taking off!
  2. My family arrived back into Heathrow from Ireland about an hour ago…was relieved they got down on the first attempt. Some very strong gusts here in Bexley. During an impressive gust earlier, a huge chunk of render fell off our neighbour’s house, leaving our shared alleyway strewn with debris. The only other time I’ve heard our garden doors creak so much was during Storm Eunice, so I’m going with the MetO Amber warning being totally justified on this occasion.
  3. Looking somewhat underwhelming thus far this squall. Wondering if the trough engagement with the cold front is what we’re about to see over Brest and then propagate north-eastwards through the evening.
  4. Can’t believe it. Had a tonne of lightning and some intracloud thunder, but it seems the core of these storms has skimmed to my WEST!!! Unbelievable
  5. Lightning has suddenly gone nuts - a few rumbles but I’m seeing IC lightning flashes every 1-2 seconds
  6. Not where I am in Bexley yet - although to be fair can’t be long now. The flashes are getting brighter
  7. Lightning flashes becoming super frequent now!!! No definite thunder yet though!
  8. I think a plane is overlapping with the first rumble of thunder
  9. There’s so much more lightning on blitzortung than I’m seeing at present - and it’s getting closer. Usually it’s the other way around. There’s so much cloudy muck here it’s obscuring what otherwise I’m sure is an insane show!
  10. Best storms in my experience happen around the changing seasons - spring into summer or summer into autumn - the clashing of cooler/drier air against the hot and humid air bit like you see in the US - the strongest storms typically taking place around spring and again in autumn
  11. Sounds like I’ve got a little garden mouse to keep me company too Still seeing plenty of flashes but nothing stand out yet and certainly too far away for any thunder to be heard.
  12. Sitting outside and think I am getting savaged by mosquitoes - so joggers and hoodie now both on!
  13. Got lightning to my north and south at the moment - and now west!
  14. Bright flash then - though I know not from whence it came
